Motor Trend says the MINI Clubvan will be on sale before the end of 2012 as a 2013 model. It also says:
. . . the Mini Clubvan is essentially a van-like twist on the existing Mini Clubman model. The rear seats are eliminated in favor of a flat, carpeted load floor, which stretches from the split rear doors to an aluminum bulkhead affixed just aft of the front seats. The rear-hinged third door – located behind the passenger-side door – remains, opaque polycarbonate panels replace the Mini Clubman’s rear quarter windows. . . .
